    Default Introduction - New Female Member From NYC

    I would like to introduce myself to the forum. I am a woman from New York who has just made my first rep watch purchase. It was a completely positive experience, and I can see myself putting together quite a collection in the future.

    After drooling over the Franck Muller watches in Bergdorf Goodman, I discovered some on rep sites. Some of the ones I looked at seemed a little bit sleazy (we will call you to arrange to pick up your payment in cash....), so I was a little hesitant.

    I finally decided to order from a firm called Watch-Ebay mainly because I liked their styles. They were one of the only ones to offer the Franck Muller Master Square in several styles and the black Crazy Hours with the black diamond bezel.

    I have to say the transaction went very well from beginning to end. I was able to pay by credit card without problems. I received emails from a guy named Tony giving me the status of the order every few days. In fact, the package arrived at my home exactly six days after placing my order. There was absolutely no hassle with customs. The package was packed very well and securely.

    I ordered four Franck Muller watches of different styles - two ETA movements and two less expensive Japanese movements - a decision dictated by which movements the styles I wanted were available with. All the watches are running well for the past month I've had them, and they all have a very upscale appearance. While Watch-Ebay wasn't the cheapest dealer available, I feel I got my money's worth in every way.

    I am looking forward to ordering more in the future. This forum was very helpful in beginning to get into this new experience, and you guys helped me in more ways than you realize. Thanks a bunch.

    welcome to the forum. enjoy your stay.

    p.s: I'd have the jewish jeweler replace the batteries if I were you.

    Have you ever considered the possibility that King Kong died for your sins?

    one of the 'tony's thats mentioned somewhere on this forum as being decent, but not a forum vendor.

    http://www.watch-ebay.net/

    supposedly, the trick is to email him about prices, and he accepts or will give you much less than the site's list price.

    Note: this is not an endorsement of this guy at all. ive never ordered from him, and i'm just going by memory here.. search the forums.. theres a thread around. I've no idea of quality/prices of anything he sells, etc.

    Some of his stuff looks decent is he's willing to bargain on the prices.

    He flat-out lies about the movements.

    I thought the name was pretty strange, since they are in no way affiliated with the real Ebay.

    I suppose if you order from them and have customs problems, you can claim to have bought your watch on Ebay.

    Let me add my welcome as well...

    Wrist shots would be wonderful as it is sometimes hard to visualize the proportions of a woman's watch versus a men's from just a "catalog" picture. I have made many buy/don't buy decisions based on how a watch looks on different wrist sizes.

    This is a wonderful place to be. Ask questions and share the knowledge.

    Regards,
    "Scotty"
